- o Major features (user interface):
- - Tor now supports the ability to declare options deprecated, so that
- we can recommend that people stop using them. Previously, this was
- done in an ad-hoc way.
- Closes ticket 19820.
- o Minor features (user interface):
- - There is a new --list-deprecated-options command-line option to list
- all of the deprecated options. Implemented as part of ticket 19820.
- o Deprecated features:
- - A number of options are deprecated for security reasons, and may be
- removed in a future version of Tor. The options are: AllowDotExit,
- AllowInvalidNodes, AllowSingleHopCircuits, AllowSingleHopExits,
- ClientDNSRejectInternalAddresses,
- CloseHSClientCircuitsImmediatelyOnTimeout,
- CloseHSServiceRendCircuitsImmediatelyOnTimeout, ExcludeSingleHopRelays,
- FastFirstHopPK, TLSECGroup, UseNTorHandshake, and WarnUnsafeSocks.
- - A number of DNS-cache-related sub-options for client ports are now
- deprecated for security reasons, and may be removed in a future version
- of Tor. (We believe that client-side DNS cacheing is a bad idea for
- anonymity, and you should not turn it on.) The options are: CacheDNS,
- CacheIPv4DNS, CacheIPv6DNS, UseDNSCache, UseIPv4Cache, and
- UseIPv6Cache.
- - The *ListenAddress options are now deprecated as unnecessary: the
- corresponding *Port options should be used instead. These options may
- someday be removed. The affected options are: ControlListenAddress,
- DNSListenAddress, DirListenAddress, NATDListenAddress, ORListenAddress,
- SocksListenAddress, and TransListenAddress.
